... experiencing "Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus"

Here are the facts

Show Title: Zing Zang Zoom
Tour: Red Tour, 2010
Performance Date: August 08, 2010
Ringmaster: Alex Ramon

I haven’t been to the circus in ages. And quite frankly, I’m not exactly the target age anymore. Nevertheless, I was excited to go again. I mean, c’mon. It’s the circus. Who doesn’t like the circus?

Unfortunately, I had mixed feelings about the show, which I always hate to say about live performances of any kind. I know how much work goes into it and it sucks to say I was unsatisfied in any way. But it must be said.
